Abb xk242 Screw-in Ac Flex Coupling 3/4 Inch

Product Description

The ABB xk242 is a screw-in type coupling fitting designed for connecting armored cable and flexible conduit in electrical raceway systems. Constructed from die-cast zinc, this coupling provides a secure mechanical connection between AC cable or flex conduit and an enclosure or junction box knockout. The 3/4 inch trade size accommodates standard armored cable and flexible conduit runs in residential and light commercial wiring applications. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install this fitting as part of approved wiring methods under NEC guidelines. The die-cast zinc body delivers solid corrosion resistance and dimensional consistency for repeatable field installation.

The xk242 coupling is used in residential and commercial electrical installations where armored cable or flexible conduit terminates at outlet boxes, junction boxes, panels, or enclosures. The screw-in design allows the coupling to thread directly into standard knockouts without additional hardware. This fitting is appropriate for both new construction rough-in work and service or retrofit applications where flexible conduit connections are required.

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3/4 inch trade size armored cable and flexible conduit. Suitable for connection to standard electrical enclosures, junction boxes, and panels with matching knockout sizes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize all circuits at the panel before making connections at boxes or enclosures. Thread the coupling securely into the knockout opening and confirm the armored cable or flex conduit is fully seated and mechanically secured before restoring power. Inspect the die-cast body for damage before installation to ensure a proper ground path and mechanical integrity.
